By version control directories, you mean .svn, .bzr, etc., right? If I
understand your proposal correctly, it's to prevent ido from offering
these directories if the user tries types "." in the minibuffer. But in
that case, as I said, the intention is clearly to edit a dotfile, so
something funky is already intended. Correct me if I misunderstand.
